New Banners for Downtown Prince George
Prince George, B.C.- Downtown Prince George will have a new look tomorrow morning. The sun faded 2015 Canada Winter Games banners are being replaced overnight tonight with new, colourful banners on George Street and Third Avenue.In partnership with the City of Prince George and the Rotary Club of Prince George, 110 new banners for the downtown feature Downtown Prince George’s branding. The 110 are among a total of 400 that will be installed along the highways, major roads, and at civic facilities in the City.
While no images were available at publication time, the banners will feature local scenes. “Banners truly add colour and character to a community and partnerships such as these go a long way to enhancing Prince George,” says Mayor Lyn Hall.
P.G. Rotary Club president, Ross Birchall, says the banner program “aligns well with Rotary International Areas of Focus including growing local economies.”
The banners use a different material than has been used in the past. The full cost of the new banners was not immediately available.

cha ching … around $300 per banner design, printed, + installed?
City of PG can’t win…everyone wants change,everyone complains the downtown needs beatification and something to draw people back into the core….and whenever something gets done, people whine because it costs money! Ya think!?
I agree with ya echoes! Sad isn’t it!
While the banners might look nice. It is the people sleeping in the doorways that get my attention.
Sadly that issue is not unique to our city, and in my opinion shouldn’t stop us from trying to improve the surroundings. I certainly wish there was a way to help each of those truly needing a hand up.
